I had an uncle who was fond of "Judas Priest!" but that has since been co-opted by a rock group.

My grandfather was not allowed my my grandmother, to cuss, but he occasionally got out an "Oh Shyte". They both had Germans in their linage.

then there is:

Fudd Ducker

Sacre bleu (a very interesting etiology there).

Crap and crappola first introduced on television by James Garner in the Rockford files in the 70's. I guess he got it passed the censors thanks to the everlasting memory of Col. Thomas Crapper of "Water Closet" fame.

Shinola

crud and Hemmingway's "crut!"

What in blazes?!

I don't give a dime.

Jumping Jupiter

Ah Garbanzo beans!
